Kousei was a great host! Even though it was overcast and we weren't able to see Mt Fuji we all had a fantastic time, he was funny and made sure everyone who wanted one got pictures of ourselves in all the scenic locations! He wished one of the guests a happy birthday and got us all a little gift to commemorate the experience. I will definitely be back if I'm in Japan again!

Fantastic experience! The observatory is easy to get around, and the staff were welcoming and helpful. The highlight, of course, was the breathtaking view - absolutely worth the visit. We were even lucky enough to see Mount Fuji in the distance.

Stunning views, great guide, and I loved the little folklore stories. Our group was small, which made everything smoother. The guide even took pics for us. Only snag: bus AC was a bit weak.

Just wow. Didn’t know what to expect, but Jorge’s stories made the history come alive. Learned a ton and laughed even more. Otsuka even gave us tips for other places to eat. Top notch.
